    NAD M10 Streaming Amplifier Review

    This is the correct answer. Despite all the dire assertions from tea leaf readings of measurements, the M10 is a suitable hub for a sweet small room system. With my setup its discreet (hidden actually) and operated with a mobile device. I never see or touch the front display, device is behind a...

    Are you sure you knew *why* it sounded underwhelming? Yes. Immature technology and poor mastering of existing recordings. Compared to vinyl recordings of the same albums it sounded woeful and this was well documented at the time in the early 80's...

    Measurements & What We Hear?

    I went to the great big sticky and had a good look. Will refrain from similar observations in future.

    Mirrorless design

    Went to a wedding recently where mirrorless cams without strobes were used by the tog. Results were very good I must say. You can also check exposure settings with an app on an iphone these days. There's an app for that apparently.

    Lens corrections equivalent to audio corrections when possible

    There's no real comparison of audio and photography. One is consuming someone else's art via a bunch of electronics and transducers, the other is capturing light in some way to create an image. If there were comparisons to be drawn, its the way in which some invest in the hardware. In both...

    Power Cords and Sound

    This is a vexed topic. Kudos to the OP who surely must have known he was going to get flamed for making such an admission. I'll also admit to using initially for the purpose of an experiment. In my case using a WAudio cable, possibly the least expensive of these things available. It comes with...

    Measurements & What We Hear?

    I wonder if there is a bit of cart before horse here. Various conversations state or conclude that: the entire chain from source to transducer is full of variables the room acoustics are an important influence in what is heard the listening experience is subjective While tests under controlled...

    Mirrorless design

    I'm firmly in the traditional SLR bodied camp for the long term. The current crop of mirrorless bodies offer amazing results but the cost for me to migrate is prohibitive. I currently have four bodies and a suite of lenses, plus an RX100II which means pretty much every situation is covered. Up...

    Stick With G9 Or Move On?

    Is the quality of your images currently unsatisfactory? Does the handling of the camera disagree with you? Is you current post processing tool not making the most of your images perhaps? How are your images consumed? If for example you are just looking at them on a small screen then they should...

    PSB Imagine Mini's. Later bought a PSB sub to go with. Turned out to be very good indeed.

    Lots of good stuff here. Let me present my humble contribution. I officially have a Tin Ear according to a local hifi establishment. I was awarded this on the strength of auditioning the very first gen CD player and the handful of available CD's and declaring it to sound underwhelming, which it...

    Can useful knowledge be gained via subjectivity?

    This is the truth of the matter. Well said. There's a lot of products on the market vying for your dollars. The real difference is not the technology, sometimes not even the performance, its the marketing to convince you its your path to audio Nirvana. Thank goodness for the measurements that...

    Fair point. Its the original version, a thing rarely seen in the wild like this.

    The decline and fall of Reflex.

    Focus on "resolution" misses the point, it is the look and feel of the images created with these 30+ year old lenses that is the reason I use them. I can do clinically sharp as well with new lenses (I have them too), but for the sorts of images I make consumed on social media or my web site...

    The kit we bought, our current setups

    Very small room setup. NAD M10, PSB Imagine Mini + PSB Subseries 200. Speakers do toe in, its a bit of an optical illusion in the pic. Did I mention its a very small room?
